The Millennium: A Time for Looking Forward and Looking Back
Torrance, E. Paul
Journal of Secondary Gifted Education, v15 n1 p6-12 Fall 2003
As I have spent almost 85 years in the past century, I can write with considerable authority on looking back. As I have dared to write on looking forward several times, I will try to project myself into the future. Some of my dreams of the future of creativity research and practice have already happened. Others have been partly realized, and still others have not happened at all, but I believe we are well on the way. This belief is based on the fact that the field of creativity has attracted some of the most creative, intelligent, courageous, daring, and hard-working people in existence. (Contains 2 tables.)
